This article is from a medical student’s perspective. He talks about his personal experience of suffering from burnout in his early years of training. He mentions the emotional drainage, dissociation, and the insane pressure to be the best to succeed. He explains how he felt like he could never ask for help and admits his burnout due to the competitiveness of the field and not wanting to look weak. The feeling of being alone and not being able to admit his struggles made it even harder because of how lonely it felt. He talks about how important it is to remove the perfectionism culture and denormalize it in the medical field. He emphasizes how important it is to have support systems and care for your mental health, and just have someone to be able to admit things to when you feel overwhelmed. The conclusion sums it all up to prove the importance of having a caring and strong community that makes it feel okay to not always be perfect.

This article presents a research study on burnout for medical students in their pre-clinical years, which is the first and second year of medical school. It uses surveys collected from student experiences to test out stress and emotional exhaustion to see where exactly it's coming from. The study examines how the intensive academic pressure brings down the students’ performance and other areas such as behavioral and cognitive abilities and practices. It also tests out how the cause stems from a lack of faculty understanding, the stigma behind medical students having to be resilient, and how overall not admitting burnout ends up causing social isolation, which brings out a lack of social skills for the medical field. It proves that burnout is more common in the preclinical years because of academic stress, whereas the clinical years focus more on clinical skills, which are approved by an A–F grading system. It also discusses how stress factors lead to an increase in dropout rates. The article concludes that educators need to provide earlier interventions and meetings with each student to show peer support. A more flexible learning environment and access to mental health services could help students manage their stress before it escalates and starts affecting their overall health.

This article focuses on the serious causes and long-term effects of burnout that occur for medical students. It talks about how burnout can cause depression, anxiety, poor academic results, increased suicide rates, and substance abuse problems. The article talks about the real serious causes found in studies performed by researchers who looked at dropout rates and death rates among medical students. It identifies the causes as overwhelming academic pressure and a lack of mental health support among educators. The author seriously talks about how burnout isn't just emotional stress but rather a public health issue that has caused serious problems for medical students. It talks about how the reason burnout isn't reported before it gets too serious is because of how it's looked upon in the medical field. Even though the medical field has medical professionals who understand what burnout is, they tend to have a stigma that if a student cannot handle their burnout, they are not fit to be a medical professional. He also mentions that while this is not true, students are afraid of what educators might think of them, which might lead to a lesser chance of being successful. The authors also focus on the importance of early intervention and an increase of awareness for educators to start providing a more understanding culture and provide more mental health seminars.

This is a scholarly source. I am sure of this because of a few things. First of all, it’s published by an author who is a medical student with a first-person narrative. It’s a professional journal coming from a reliable source. With the vocabulary and style used, it’s clearly intended for a very professional audience in the medical field. It’s intended for educators, researchers, healthcare professionals, and medical students. It also includes citations to other studies to prove their claim and follows academic publishing standards. It also contains over 20 references from scientific publications. It also has a conclusion that summarizes what educators and healthcare professionals should do to better the medical field system that causes students to burn out.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a scholarly article published by a very dependable source, The Journal of Family Medicine and Disease Prevention, which is a peer-reviewed journal. It's written by professionals in healthcare and medical educators who have noticed serious issues arising in their medical students and classrooms. This article includes citations, over 40 references, statistics, tables, data from numerous scientific studies, and a formal structure. This article is aimed at an audience of medical researchers and educators, using very formal and professional vocabulary. It's aimed towards this specific audience to bring awareness to how they should change the way they’re structuring their medical field classrooms and change the perfectionist culture towards academics. It sums it up to address how they should lessen academic stress and focus more on the well-being and cognitive abilities of their students.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a scholarly article because it was published in Current Medical Issues in Instruction, which is a reviewed and professionally approved medical journal. The article is written by medical educators with a research degree who performed a study on burnout, which is a very credible source. It includes methodology, statistical analysis tables, and numerical data. It also includes over 30 medical references from other studies. This is intended for medical group educators and researchers doing similar studies so that they could use the study as a reference. The structure uses claims, evidence, and reasoning using methods and medical discussions between other professionals with a Ph.D. It uses very specific academic language and research vocabulary. Technical terms like “quantitative analysis” prove that it's been written by professionals. All of these things confirm that this is a scholarly article.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a popular source because it's written for the general public and uses very simple vocabulary for anyone to be able to understand. It's also published by WebMD, which is a well-known popular source. It does not include references or scientific data, but it does include really simple conclusions for each section of symptoms, causes, and solutions. The tone is very casual and easy for a quick reading. This is more of an awareness article to inform people what burnout truly is.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a trade source. I identified it as one because it is published by a professional organization, the American Psychiatric Association. It’s aimed at medical healthcare practitioners to learn the causes of burnout. The audience is professionals and students, with the tone being a little formal but not as much as a scholarly one. It doesn't include academic citations and references but uses expert knowledge. The goal is to inform students and professionals so that they can prevent burnout.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a popular source for students specifically in the medical field. It's published by Med School Insiders, which is a known site for med students. It's a site that advises pre-med students and medical students to help them go through their field of study. The language is very casual and formal as if you're having a conversation. The tone is easy and quick to help students with a high load of stress spare a few minutes to skim the article while having a full understanding of what they can do to prevent and cure their burnout. It sounds like the author might have a medical background or at least a background in advising medical students but does not contain any references or data to back up their claims. The main focus is to advise all students, but specifically medical students, rather than advising professionals on how they could help the students.

# data[].attributes.body
The source was a little harder for me to read than the previous article because it was written using research terms. It, however, gave strong evidence of how burnout starts very early in medical school due to academic pressures. This would be very helpful for a person who believes in scientific data to believe a point. The fact that it uses real data proves how serious the issue is. The conclusions were very clear and well-supported using data from the tables and numbers shown previously in the article. It also talks about how we need to act early before students are burnt out and before they go into the clinical stages of medical school where a clear conscience is very important. The data was really helpful because it shows exactly when and why burnout begins. It also connects other sources and other studies about academic pressures and emotional stress, which gives it a more in-depth story. It made me wonder why medical school depends so much on academics, and academics are the whole reason burnout starts and why students fail later in the clinical years when a stress-free mindset is required to perform the best clinical care. If anything, I wonder why they don't focus more on the clinical years to assess if someone is fit to be a doctor.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the source was my favorite as it was really easy to follow and specifically aimed at students going through the medical field. They gave advice but also went in-depth into how to perform the strategies, such as how to meditate and how to manage time. It felt like I was reading an article run by someone who completely understands the academic stress of being a medical student. It picked very doable advice and had a straight-up conclusion that talked about reflecting on one's own habits and how to address them. It helped me answer my questions about how students can manage burnout and how exactly to start working on those techniques that will help manage stress. It also made me wonder why resources like this weren't provided to every student in the medical field. While many sources are provided to medical students, not many are as realistic and truthful as this one regarding how much academic strain comes with this field.

# data[].attributes.body
I found the source to be easy to read and understand. They use clear language that a basic student could learn from, which I appreciated. It focuses on prevention when early signs arise. I found the conclusion to be very helpful as it summed up how burnout can be easily prevented and treated when early signs are detected. It wasn’t as detailed as a scholarly article, but it offered solutions and advice rather than just identifying problems and data. It helped me reflect on my own burnout signs and what I could do now to help prevent it from getting worse. It also made me wonder why not more people know about this to help them go through medical school. It made me realize how self-care is very important, especially when in a very stressful environment.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought this was a very powerful and informative article, but it was difficult to read on a college student's level. It was filled with serious information that used statistics like suicide rates to prove how serious burnout for medical students can be. It was eye-opening and made me think about how urgent this issue is and how more people need to be aware of this. Its conclusion just summed up all these statistical data that proved that burnout isn't just being overly stressed but is an epidemic, which I thought was very helpful and ended the article in a very moving way. Since it was aimed towards research professionals and educators, I wouldn't recommend a student read it, but it is very helpful for educators to understand the serious issue. It was very helpful in answering my questions about the serious consequences of burnout. It agreed with all the other sources and took a very deep dive into the dangers of ignoring the students’ mental health. It made me wonder why there aren't specific policies placed for how much pressure can be put on a medical student and where they draw the line.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought this article was very resourceful and impactful. I could easily understand it since it’s coming from a student’s perspective, which also made it relatable. It gave real experiences that made the issue come to life. I appreciate how the student admitted all of this to de-stigmatize the perfectionism culture and help other students speak up when feeling overwhelmed. Its conclusion felt really powerful because it emphasized how healthcare workers and educators should minimize the stigma behind medical students having to have perfect grades at all times. It really gives them advice on what they should be doing, like lowering the standards or having a pass/fail system instead of a grading system to lower the pressure on medical students to help them succeed in other things rather than just academics. This article really stood out to me because I could feel the emotion from the student's words, and it was empowering to see another medical student admit their burnout. I just wonder why not as many medical students and healthcare workers admit things like this if it could all help each other in the end.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought this was very easy to read and very helpful for my research. It helps me understand everything because it uses a tone that I'm used to as a first-year college student. I think anyone could read this and will benefit deeply because of its casual tone. It didn't have an exact conclusion, but I would say its form of a conclusion is listing sources to help someone going through burnout understand the next steps that they need to take. This made me wonder why schools don't showcase articles like this for all students to read to know to prevent burnout.

Burnout in Medical School: A Medical Student’s Perspective

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
In the last decade, there has been a heightened awareness of burnout in medicine, particularly in medical education. It has garnered further attention during the COVID-19 pandemic, with healthcare workers facing a tremendous amount of pressure to care for patients with an unknown illness, while working long hours in personal protective equipment and putting themselves and their families at risk. Similarly, the pandemic precipitated burnout in medical students as many started and completed their clinical rotations during the height of the pandemic, all while preparing and applying for residency. While the pandemic may have accentuated the issues faced by healthcare workers and medical students and brought public attention to them, the concept of burnout remains unclear and difficult to define despite being referenced on a regular basis.

of Oman’s top medical universities from October 2019 to April 2020. A cohort of 350 preclinical medical students in their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years of study participated in this study. The assessment of burnout was based on self-reports from the participants, using the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey. Various variables were coded and analyzed. Results: A total of 350 students completed the survey (response rate: 83.3%). Burnout was reported by 125 (35.7%) students. Regarding specific domains of burnout, most students demonstrated higher rates of cynicism (n: 236; 67.4%) and emotional exhaustion (n: 221; 63.1%) and lower rates of academic efficacy (n: 197; 56.3%). Burnout was significantly more common among older students (p-value < 0.001), students living apart from their family (p-value: 0.042), students who did not participate in regular exercises (p-value < 0.001), those who spent fewer hours studying per day (p-value < 0.001), those who regretted their decision to study medicine (p-value: 0.023), those who were dissatisfied with examination results (p-value < 0.001), teaching strategies (p-value: 0.029), those with lower cumulative grade point averages (p-value < 0.001), and those with a history of academic probation (p-value < 0.001). Conclusions: Preclinical medical students displayed high rates of burnout. Continuous evaluation programs and educational initiatives are recommended to help such students to develop better burnout management and coping strategies.…

Medical Student and Resident Burnout: A Review of Causes, Effects, and Prevention

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Professional burnout is a multi-dimensional phenomenon, which may result from prolonged unhealthy occupational stress. Symptoms in burnout cluster in three domains: emotional exhaustion, feeling isolated, and low work satisfaction. Medical students and residents are at particular risk because of their dual student pressures and in-training clinical care responsibilities.

Burnout—it’s a term we hear often, but we don’t always recognize it creeping up on us until it’s too late. Whether it’s from work, personal life, or the weight of unmet expectations, burnout is a significant challenge in today’s fast-paced, performance-driven world. We live in a culture of “upward comparisons,” constantly measuring ourselves against those further along than us, which can leave us feeling inadequate. Or, we get buried under a growing workload with little institutional support.
